This is an ideal career for analytical thinkers. As a wool classer you classify wool into different categories ready for sale at markets to attract maximum competition at sale time. You classify the wool according to its various characteristics such as, colour, length, strength and quality.

Education Qualifications

To become a wool classer you will need to complete a Certificate IV in Wool Classing as well as a completion of Year 10. You may be able to become a wool classer via an apprenticeship, which will also see you needing to complete Year 10. Various registered Training organisations, such as TAFE (Australia wide), have courses available, but we would suggest you check with them for more detailed information as well as entry requirements.

The entry criteria for tertiary institutions differs from year to year. The above comments are a guide only. To gain specific entry criteria, contact the relevant university or use Hobson's The Good University Guide.
